In Steffy’s office, Finn and Steffy kiss. He assures her again that he only has eyes for her, not Hope. Eric comes in, and they chat about the photo shoot. They (mostly Eric) talk about the Brooke’s Bedroom line, and how it’s great for Ridge, who seems happy. Steffy thinks that Taylor is the reason Ridge is doing well, and they agree. Finn talks about how much the kids love having her around. Later, Finn and Steffy discuss Taylor, alone. Steffy is very glad to have her mom home and hopes she stays. She feels more relaxed with her around. Finn is happy for her.

In Hope’s office, she and Carter continue to flirt, since he thinks she should model lingerie to tie in HFTF with Brooke’s Bedroom. They talk about their past office romances and how badly they turned out. They agree that it’s a bad idea, but it’s obvious that they’re attracted to each other (as they grin foolishly). Eric comes in and talks about the Brooke’s Bedroom line briefly. They smile at each other behind him. He leaves them alone. Hope promises Carter that she’ll think about the modeling idea.

At Il Giardino, Katie and Will share a meal. They talk at length about Bill. Will pours out his heart about how much it affected him before when Bill didn’t treat her well, and he doesn’t want him to do that again. He reminds her that he’s fine if they don’t get back together. He also doesn’t want to be anything like “Dollar Bill” in life or business. She’s glad to hear him being honest with her. He tells her at the end that he’s transferring to a local school, which makes her very happy. They hug.

Ridge helps Taylor revive and stand up after her fall at Forrester. He wants to get her to a hospital, but she tells him that she won’t go. She also warns him not to tell Steffy. She makes excuses about why she fainted, but he doesn’t believe her. He presses her for details, so she tells him that she already saw a doctor in Europe. She tells him to make sure to take care of Steffy. Now he’s really worried, so she tells him, reluctantly, that she has heart failure and is dying.

The Forresters gather for a new Brooke’s Bedroom photo shoot. They’re bringing in Icelandic rock star J.J. (Jökull Júlíusson), who’s the lead singer of a band called Kaleo (in real life), to record music for the new shoot. They all meet. Hope is a big fan of J.J., and so is Finn. Steffy prepares to go get J.J. Hope chats with her briefly about J.J. Steffy informs Hope that Finn will be there, so Hope needs to stay away from him. Hope and Carter chat a little. Finn arrives, so he and Hope chat, mostly about J.J.

Taylor warns her to keep an eye on Hope. Steffy sets up a live feed on the TV screen for their shoot, which Taylor watches.

Steffy goes back to the photo shoot. Bridget arrives and says hello to her mom and everyone. She knows J.J. from a visit to Iceland, and she arranged for him to be there. Everyone is very excited. J.J. arrives and meets everyone. Finn is also there and is a bit tongue-tied to meet J.J. Hope watches from the other side of the room. Steffy tells Hope that she doesn’t like the way she was looking at Finn and accuses her of fantasizing about Finn. Hope denies it, but Steffy tells her to leave, so she does (because she knows her line is in danger if she doesn’t).

Finn chats with Steffy. She mentions that she told Hope to leave. Later, he assures her that he only has eyes for her, and it doesn’t matter what Hope does. They hug and kiss.

In another office, Hope fantasizes about the kiss she gave Finn. Carter comes in and tells Hope that he’s been thinking about her, and HFTF. They flirt a bit. He has an idea about making her line more popular: she should model lingerie for her own line, and tie it in with Brooke’s Bedroom. She doesn’t look sure about that idea, but she clearly enjoys flirting with Carter.

Finn is now concerned. He visits Bill. He doesn’t mention the clinic, but they catch up on what’s been going on with him and Steffy. He says that Liam and Bill were the last to see Steffy. Bill has no clue as to where Steffy went. Luna returns just then, asking Bill if he wants to join her for a swim, surprising Finn. Bill reminds him that Luna is staying there. She asks Bill to help her with the TV in her room, so Bill goes with her. Finn looks a bit suspicious, but his main focus is worrying about Steffy.

We see many flashbacks to Steffy and Finn.

RJ and Ridge chat about how Steffy hasn’t been testing or answering phone calls. Ridge is getting very worried. They joke around, briefly, about Ridge being over-protective with his kids. RJ is concerned about Luna because she’s been distant lately and seems to only be interested in spending time with Bill. They both clearly think this is odd.

He asks her to swear out a statement, but she asks if it can be anonymous, so that her mom doesn’t hate her. He says that he’ll look into it.

Steffy continues to scream for help, but no one comes to rescue her. Luna arrives. She and Luna continue to argue. Steffy tries to appeal to Luna by reminding her that she has kids, but Luna points out that, since Finn is her cousin, her kids are family. She promises to “take care of them,” which upsets Steffy even more. Later, Steffy, upset, pleads for Finn to come rescue her as she looks down at the wedding rings.

Sheila, Katie and Deacon sit down at Il Giardino. They talk about the deaths of Deacon’s good friends, Tom and Hollis, and how weird it is that Poppy presumably killed them. They all feel bad for Luna. Sheila shows Deacon that she had memorial photos of the two men framed, to hang up in the restaurant. Deacon is very touched.

Poppy is visited in jail by Luna; they’re not allowed to touch. Poppy assures Luna that she’s innocent and tells her not to worry about her. Luna tells her that she knows she’s not guilty. She tells Poppy about the paternity tests and how Bill didn’t throw her out. Poppy is disappointed that she’s not Bill’s daughter but is glad to hear that Bill is still supporting Luna.
